Pink Saturday Time

It's Pink Saturday time again and I have something new to share.

Downtown Charlottetown has a little thrift shop which opened a few months ago and Lori, the lady of the shop, has some very nice things. If you're looking for vintage furniture, china, linens, lamps, etc, hers is the place to go!

I have found some lovely things since meeting Lori and at my last visit, I found these:A new pink depression glass teacup. The pattern is called Trellis and even has some fleur de lis on it. Love it!

My Daddy used to collect vintage items, including milk bottles. He had quite a collection but when he passed away, they all went missing! I never got one. So when I found these bottles at Lori's shop, I snatched them up.

The little cream bottle still has the stopper on it.

And what is better than one pink teacup?

Why two of course!Tea anyone?

I found a few other things too but I will share them next week at my tea party. Would you like to join me? I am so glad you have stopped by and I hope your Labor Day weekend is a happy and safe one! Thanks to Beverly for hosting our pink party.UPDATE~ Since posting this, we received word that my hubby's nephew passed away this afternoon. So I know you will forgive me if I am not able to visit everyone this weekend. God bless you!Sharing from my heart~ Sandi

I love this pink cup and saucer Sandi, it's so pretty, you were lucky to find that little shop with beautiful stuff. I just posted a table with pink sherbets and water glasses, they would look great with teacups like yours. Enjoy your weekend.FABBY

Hi Sandi, I love the pink cup and saucer. I love these types of little shops, no telling what treasures await us. Love those vintage milk bottles. Wish I could get mine that clear! I'll look forward to your tea party to see your other treasures. HPS……..

Hi Sandi, I absolutely adore your depression glass teacups! They are so pretty. When I was a little girl, my grandma bought her milk in bottles. It was whole milk, but not homogenized. She let it sit and the cream rose to the top. She skimmed off the cream to use in coffee or tea.

Hi Sandi, I love your pink teacups. I have a set of 4 turquoise ones and not used them yet. I'm afraid to put a hot tea into them. Did you worry about that with yours? I see it was ok. Did you put a spoon in it first? I'm glad you found some milk bottles. They are great for single flowers or small bouquets. I hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend. Blessings, Pamela

Hello SandiSorry to read about your nephew. I love the two new teacups, they are so you! The farm where I buy our eggs is now selling unhomogenized milk in glass bottles. I haven't bought any yet but do want to try it.Judith

Hello Sandi! You may not remember me from a few years back, when my blog, Cup of Tea With Friends (www.roseprincess.blogspot.com). I still have the blog, it was hard to keep up with so much posting after my son was born and I'm slowly getting back into it. but recently I'd introduced Pink Saturday to my mom, so now we participate through her blog. I was hoping to see you today.Hope you have a wonderful Pink Saturday!Michelle @ Just the Bear Facts!

Hi Sandie...it's the last weekend before the kids go back to school so it's been a bit of a zoo...running around..but I had to zip by here...and wish you a great weekend and tell you your being in my world...always makes me smile.

Hello Sandi,I am loving your new pink glass tea cup set! I have been looking at these for a while now at the shops, but haven't yet seen just the right pattern. I love yours!How wonderful that you were able to get the milk bottles! I am sorry your dad's disappeared.Happy September!Hugs,Terri

Pink Depression teacups are delightful .. they just seem to perk up the teatime sips ... I love them... and how lucky you were to find these little treasures ...

The milk bottles are also a find... I've been collecting them for years and only have 8 ... but they're in the original wooden crate... I don't know what I'll do with them ...maybe just enjoy( ha Ha)... Enjoy a relaxing day, Sweet lady... Hugs

I am delighted to have you visit me and I read every comment. Please forgive me for not being able to visit you all as there are so many of you lovely bloggy friends now. I will visit as much as possible. I wish you a day filled with JOY! ~ Sandi

About Me

I live a happy life in Green Gables country with my sweet hubby who is a retired pastor. We have three wonderful sons and five darling grandchildren. I love being a home maker and I thrive on bringing beauty and comfort into my home for my family and friends to enjoy. Life is made even richer by my faith in God who has taught me, "The joy of the Lord is my strength." I am so happy you have stopped by and I welcome you through my yellow door.

"One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon - instead of enjoying the roses blooming outside our windows today. " ~ Dale Carnegie

"Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't become ugly, except to people who don't understand. "~ The Velveteen Rabbit
